REGISTER ONLINE FOR UNIQUE MUSICAL VBS

Southern Hills Church of Christ, 3364 Buffalo Gap Road, once will again stage a lively musical vacation Bible school for the community. VBS will be held 6:30-8:30 p.m. July 23-25 at the church.

Several years ago, Southern Hills switched to a new format for VBS. Some of it is the same — classes, refreshments and recreation. But the entertainment is definitely unique. Theme for this year’s musical production is “Sam: The Unexpected Prophet.”

The story is designed to teach about God’s work through the life and times of the prophet Samuel. Each night, families gather at the church at 6:30 p.m. for the traditional part of vacation Bible school. At 7:30 p.m., the musical will begin, with one part of it being presented each of the three nights. All events are free
